>>571232667She goes into much more depth and gives valuable insightVery much worth a watch imo, with legend gone this is the next best thing
>>571232667>playing the game = shilling
>another moddb download that DOESNT FCUKING FINISHholy fucking shit, what a massive niggerjob this host is
Damneders has been making these slop content farms for years, do we really have so many newfags that don't know that this is how anon responds to the person shilling him? They're basically two parts of the same ritualpost.
>>571232935>do we really have so many newfagsLmfao no, this general is dying
we have many 40k newfags.
>>571233204In facct, we have so many newfags that they took away the ip counter so we wouldn't be blown away
>>571232561It involves intercourse with captives we get during our raids.

>>571243338What the fuck does that mean?
>>571243625He's mad he lost the debate last thread.
>kislev has ostankya faction alter their lords to boost her animal roster with her red line>eltharion still doesn't boost his mistwalker units six years later
>>571244006his unique yellow line buffs them I thinkmakes it kinda pointless to level if you confederate him though
>>571244314Its weird confederating Eltharion doesnt unlock Mistwalker recruitment>Yeah our Lord and citizens joined your faction but Mistwalkers wont serve you hehehe
can anyone make a list of the best medieval 2 mods? I want to play them all
>>571248442the big lotr onethe big warhammer onesshipyou can find more about them on Total War Center but beware, it is the most autistic place on the internet
>>571249532wrong, europa barbarorum is the only and best mod you'll ever playI didn't even knew there was a warhammer mod
>>571239785its called steam, dumbass
>heir of carthage - gone>legend of total war - gonewarhammer 3 is literally killing total war but people pretend it's a good game
>>571250527both of those guys are lame
>>571250527and nothing of value was lost
>>571250527heir just moved on with his life as far as I know, in his later years posting he said he didn't have much time to game anymore because of his kids and eventually just stopped postinglegend is just a fag and delusional if he thinks paradoxfags will be any less neurotic than twfagsbut it could be worse, at least neither became fortnite streamers like prince of macedon

Now they run back to India, never to return... right?
What do anons want to see in Medieval 3? A return of the ransom system is a must for me.
>>571256382i want to see spearmen
>>571256382I'd like to see a feudal lord system where your generals are part of a noble family with their own loyalties likes and dislikesfeudal politics can be fun but so far only three kingdoms put any effort into a system like that
>>571256382I'd like to be able to convert cultures like you could in Attila. For example if you wanted to you could make England Jewish, Muslim, or Pagan if you tried hard enough
>>571257087
>>571256382Actually, nothing. Just like three kingdoms, troy and pharaoh and whatnot, I'll never look at it, just place it on the ignore list on steam and keep playing warhammer. I wouldn't even play a shogun 3 even tho 2 was the total war that got me into this series.Warhammer 3 is like WoW. No matter what new thing comes, I'll always go back to WoW cause no MMO will ever have as much content and polish as WoW. Warhammer 3 has such an absurd amount of stuff in it, nothing can compete. Not even 40k will.
>>571259070>Not even 40k will.It will after ten years of DLCs and sequels.
>>571259535That's the thing.. when warhammer 1 was in the works, they announced it would be a 3 part series that combines. They haven't for 40k as far as I know so I strongly believe that just won't happen.
>>571256382A magic system so that I have more to do than watch two melee lines rub against each other.
>>571259682Probably because the back-to-back version control disasters CA had when making WH2 and WH3 has given them PTSD so for 40k they're just going to have a gorillion DLCs for one game instead. There's absolutely no way that CA isn't going to milk 40k dry.
>>571256382Good sieges. CASTLE CUSTOMIZATION.
>>571256382You could take priests to battles in Shogun? Or what unit is this
>>571256382SEXUAL RELATIONS WITH MY KNIGHTS!
>>571262000based
>>571261163Well they kinda shot themselves already tho. They said they'd make an army painter so they can't even do the whole chapter DLC stuff.
What if the changeling joined slaanesh? I bet he'd be popular at orgies
>>571262307isn't he a demon? So he.. can't.
>>571261770Just a mod
>>571262286Chapter DLC can add units/mechanics and more chapter-specific cosmetic stuff. Just look at Space Marine 2, the cosmetic DLC sells gangbusters and most of it is for chapters that were in the customisation menu on day one.
god I wish this divide and conquer mod was on m2ex or whatever the 64bit mod with unrestricted camera, cause its filtering me hard, its not the blocky graphics in fact those are great, its the no drag unit groups, no hold space to view positions, the cam is really bad, and worst of all no real widescreen, its clearly just the 4:3 stretched to 16:9, shits nauseating, its just like heroes of might and magic V, I'd rather force black bars in a 4:3 res than play med 2 in 16:9I'm filtered for now and have to go back to dawnless days on attila
aaaa I wanna play Tyranids
I love the little cow caravans on the trade routes
How come CA is unable to make a battlefield as cool as the average russian shithole?
>>571262154Can't be making me horny this early in the morning.
>>571267258Loved that one CoD map
>try Sayl because I want to do a wizard man campaign>3 hours later I realise I screwed up because I let Zhatan live thinking he would get killed by Grimgor but he never showed up>and he loves Vilitch so now I have a 3 way war with only one army to do it withtime to restart I guessI'm sure Grimgor will be a nice passive bitch boy for me too and not even think about inconveniencing me the moment I deal with Zhatan
>>571264085I just don't see it happening. DLC is nice and all but eventually it makes less and less and less money because the game grows old and stale. WH2 and 3 had new campaigns and big announcements and brought tons of new players who eventually buy that DLC. 40k can't do that. They don't even have a campaign map. They can't make a new one and never said they wanted to.Total war fans aren't as loyal as Stellaris fans and just eat up DLCs for over a decade. They want a new game every so often.
This is pretty funny to me.. The 2nd most played game is the worst they ever made.
wait... this part of the map isn't in the mod 'yet isn't it? I had no idea fuck
my gorebad is level 15 at turn 3
>>571269360and still jobs to lvl1 lord magistrate in a 1v1
>>571269321you mean rome 2? its not bad after all the updates, even vanilla, it just has a bad rep lingering from release like cyberpunk for /v/ermin (but meanwhile cyberpunk is also an amazing game now)
>>571269334welp, since that part of the map isn't in the mod to get arnor in the reunited kingdom of gondor I have no choice but to end the campaign here, disorder is exctinct
Are Mutalith Vortex Beasts worth it?
>>571270053ye
>>571269620I remember the first time I played it coop with my fren. I played Sparta, he whatever.. and all my battles seemed piss easy.. eventually I had a city defense battle. Like, 2 armies into my 10 or so units.All I did was put my super long spear spartans into the entry way to the victory point. Both armies of the AI, force mached into my spears, through them, without attacking. Just tried to force their infantry through those long spears.. me and the mate watched for 20 minutes in silence without any order ever issues to my units.Completely victory, 0 losses, entire enemy force dead.We both just agreed to never play that horrendous trash ever again.
>>571270578yeah that's called playing a greek faction, spear wall hoplites are unbeatable because the AI is too retarded to flank them, anything less than total invulnerability of a phalanx wall and the greekboo autists will lose it, its like that in every total war, stop goofing around and play the titular faction Rome, at first the campaign is tricky because your units are lightly armored beta versions of legionnaires, like hastati, my favorite unit in the series, so you need to use tactics to win early battles specially vs carthage which have hoplites, then at some point you get legions and only then are you free to steamroll, its fun
>>571270803But that's the issue.. I find rome the most boring trash ever. I like sparta.. cause the movie is cool. Rome is so uninteresting I never wanna play it just like I never play empire in warhammer. I don't want rome. Why would I play a faction I find garbage?
>>571270987why don't you like rome coolest shit ever
>>571271082Cause like.. they are literal whos.. Sparta has the movie 300 and they are super awesome and cool...Rome has.. well.. I guess statues with people with tiny penis who are balding..
fielding an army full of Hexwraiths against an army full of Bloodletters is a terrible idea. Big L from the Tomb Kangs here
>>571271152they invented and popularized the very alphabet you're using rn, check out the rome HBO show, amazing show, probably the best historical show out there, bout ceasar's rise up to augustus the first emperor, its kino
>>571271253.. the alphabet.. I'm like... I've never been less flaccid in my existence..
>>571271330the point is they shaped the modern world more than anything, just by being ballers that conquered everyone for hundreds of years and built cool shit like plumbing systems in literally BC times, they did it with goofy lookin dudes which throw javelins before engaging in sword melee, can't be cooler than that in ancient warfare...
Remember melkor and princeofmacedon?
>>571271493I dunno, anon.. that's.. not very cool. I think Archaon is pretty cool with all the shit he did. I mean I find history of human horribly boring anyway, humans are boring. I like history when its about dinosaurs. My fav ever is spinosaurus aegyptiacus and since very recently spinosaurus mirabilis.. I only find history cool when it's made epic like Sabaton's song about the bismark. That is a pretty awesome story. Inventions and such are.. the absolute opposite what I wanna hear about.
>>571271752for me archeon is lame because he has literal plot armor and he didn't really do anything on his own he was babied through the chaos gods' bullshit op magic power and handed everything for being a good slave, basically you want aura farming though... the bismarck and yamato were both amazing battleships but they both sunk before doing ANYTHING because ships are just too invulnerable to massed planes with torpedoes, that's real war for you check this new sabaton song about caesar tho it slapshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEtvIFNLfVE
>>571271752>Pretending to be retarded for attentionC'mon anon you can do better than that.
>>571271989and also the reason caesar's story is most people's favorite from rome, is because it mirrors the development of countless societies in human history, from idealistic somewhat-democracies to that decaying when shit gets rough to that system collapsing and being helped to collapse by accelerationists like caesar into a new system like an empire with more consolidated power, that eventually too is doomed to collapse for similar reasons, and repeat n repeat n repeat, its a cool story from history that's relevant to the way humans have managed and will always manage societies, that's cooler than chaos slave takes chaos power to destroy everything in a tantrum
>>571271989See, that's how you make me play your game. That's an epic song. You might be a history nerd and love all the human things they did but I just like cool things. 300 is the most stupid movie ever but it's heroic and entertaining so I like spartans.And Skarbrand gave Khorne a nasty slash into his armor.. coolest thing ever.>>571272059I'm just speaking my mind.
This image reminds me of this.. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2739830/King_Arthur_Legion_IX/?curator_clanid=5728439But apparently it's not as good as King ARthur Knights Tale. That game is fantastic.. I love Mordred
>>571272575see I don't like chaos in general precisely because they tried to make a fatalistic pre-dermined grimdark world like berserk, but the problem is the god-hand and idea of evil in zerk are way more intimidating and menacing than chaos, chaos act like little babies, the stupid great game shit, the random stuff they do despite never being able to fail because they "feed on emotion" is a cheap cop-out, who wants to want 4 endless power babies mess shit up, compare to em to the god-hand in berserk, they don't only feed on all emotions but more on mankind's want for reason for suffering, and they use their power like proper evil adults, they herd humanity into a cycle of suffering where the very things that are causing the problems are their salvation, they're an infinitely better unrelenting grimdark force, even in berserk some dudes like guts challenge this though, imo chaos should not have won the end-times, just like they shouldn't win in 40k, because they're fuckin dumb n boring, necrons and nids are infinitely cooler enemies
>>571269795>and thus the Shire and Bree, indeed all of old Eriador remained free of autism-anon's yokealso, how did you stand doing 2 sieges per turn in Osgiliath for 100 turns until you built up enough infrastructure to go on the offensive? the mod is cool and the units are great but god the battles are so inconsequential
>>571272972I'm no lore expert but isn't chaos losing rn? So, Slaanesh got ass raped, the great horned rat was put into the big 4 by archaon.. and archaon seeks complete destruction of all, just like the horned rat, which is why he helps the rat.Chaos lost their strongest god and it doesn't seem the rat or archaon are losing ground.. they keep winning.. so eventually, Archaon and the horned rat destroy everything and chaos loses.. the living things vanish, the demons vanish, the gods vanish.. and even the horned rat vanished.. but he wants that. Only archaon will be left.dunno about 40k.. but I always thought warhammer fantasy was a story about everyone losing.. besides archaon..
>>571272575Apologies. If you like flashy jingling with no substance (and substance actually bores you), you might be genuinely on the lower end of IQ distribution. This may sound harsh, but to each their own. In fact I'm somewhat envious. Your enjoyment of these things doesnt detract from me enjoying my stuff, but if key jingling is enough to keep you happy, the world is full of stuff you'll love.
>>571273263you hold the line, for the sake of gondor, my #1 complaint with the campaign was that it was a generic attila settlement, they need to get on that because its fucking osgilliath, should be a gorgeous city of bridges with those being the chokepoints besides between that and constant back n forth with the crosair shits and the other tribal dudes in the south there was plenty to do every turn, usually the osgilliath mordor battles were big ones, 20 stacks every 5-10 turns, which is fine to fight, meanwhile I took an active role in protecting and helping rohan so was doing that for most of the earlygame also damn katarin was hot in this trailerhttps://youtu.be/HAr7yUlM0Po>>571273270in 40k? the imperium's "impending collapse" is more harked on than ever, only papa smurf's crusade is bascially their last hope and his actions in general are like the last hoorah, but that's always the state of the setting lol, I just don't want chaos to win like it did in warhammer fantasy, they don't deserve it
>>571273590People say I'm dumb for loving isekais but that's my thing. I love an absolute powertrip. Don't much care for talking, I like smashing.. and make the smashing epic.>>571273661But I just said chaos is losing in warhammer fantasy.
>>571273270>Chaos lost their strongest godIn none of the warhammer cannons is slaanesh described as being stronger than the other gods, generally they're considered equal and if anything people usually go with khorne being the first and strongest, as violence is the oldest and most common thing in the universe
>>571256382I want to see the Holy Roman Empire, the most magnificent of all Roman Empires
>>571273820Isn't there a part where Slaanesh gives khorne some chalice and for millions of years, khorne keeps breaking and then repairing the thing endlessly because he can't overcome Slaanesh's powers..
>>571273774are u talking about age of sigmar I refuse to acknowledge its existence or engage with it cause it looks lame
>>571274070Well, yeah.
>>571271989>for me archeon is lame because he has literal plot armor and he didn't really do anything on his own he was babied through the chaos gods' bullshit op magic power and handed everything for being a good slaveI think that part isn't supposed to make him cool, it's supposed to make him tragic. Dude repeatedly tried to kill himself to avoid that. Archaon only starts being "cool" when he says fuck it we ball and puts his all into the trials to gather the treasures of Chaos (for which he didn't get divine help) and destroy the world to destroy the gods and just goes balls to the wall evil overlord general. Even then, ultimately, his character is always more tragic than cool, and he's just trying to fight back in the only way he thinks he can, which regrettably happens to be fucking over everyone else.
where kangz dlcWHERE
>>571256382Elite units being rare
>>571274106he's at least a much better char than the ultimate sad n goofy jobber abaddon
>>571274185news next weektrust the plan
she'd probably be the hottest lady of the setting without the hijabelspeth close 2nd (also hijab nerfed)
>>571274446She looks really cute ingame but her trailer look wasn't it bro.Also needs bigger slav milkers.
This make me weep..
>>571273263>>571273661gotta say this was one of the most fun siege battles i've played in any total war in yearsthey had a stack at sea + a stack at land, and the d-day funnel here was brilliant n fun to defend, i think this is one of the custom maps of the mod but not sure lol idk fuckin southernling architecture
>>571274446she is bald
>>571274446just mod it champthis isn't a consolecuck game like 40k, you have a workshop for a reason
>>571275285nuh uh
Now THIS is what TW:40k is all about. THIS is what /twg/ has been missing.
>>571269127From what they've said about how the campaigns work so far it sounds like it's going to be lots of smaller, more self contained campaigns rather than one giant IE-style one trying to cover the entire galaxy all at once. I can easily see them slotting all sorts of themed campaigns as DLC.
>>571276450Well that's just a really bad move.. so if I wanna play nids and my mate wants space trannies, we can't play cause there is no campaign that has both?
>>571275520iis that this mod?
>>571244006Pretty sure you Buff Mistwalkers with the Athel Tamarah dungeon.
It's time for a good ol' campaign of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsvYr6C0KVU&list=RDVsvYr6C0KVU&start_radio=1
>>571276613I think so but if you don't like the leopard cape there is another version of it that's just the vanilla dress without the hijab nerf
If we're talking about reskins has anyone tried this? Kind of annoying that there's no in game screenshotshttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3739179785
>>571271989>check this new sabaton song about caesar Nu uh:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXLvfxYC5NQ
>>571249532SSHIP is jank as hell
>>571276598I got the impression that normal campaigns might be randomly generated a la Stellaris, and there will be bespoke campaigns like Armageddon alongside those.
What do you guys usually do in situations like this?
>>571279058bruh the exact same fucking thing happened to me as kroq-gar tooI chose to trade settlements. don't make the same mistake I did
>>571277842this and the ceasar song and the jean darc and the lu bu songs were great, the rest of the ones in the album eeeh, specially disappointed in the napoleon one, and its somehow the most popular, so idk
>>571279058Is settlement strong enough to resist Feskit's army ?
>>571279257I also chose to trade settlements lol, now chasing the stack around.>>571279374Hell no, I took it like one turn ago from them and it's a tier 1 with no buildings and the garrison has had one single turn of replenishment.
>>571276598There will obviously be a generic campaign map with every faction on it for people that want that.But since the campaign 'map' is a series of modular planet biomes with arbitrary space connections between them it can be customized or randomized in a way that conventional TW maps of Europe can't.
>>571274863That is in fact one of the vanilla Attila maps.
>>571279759damn, def the best sieges in the series
The, uhh, situation, has escalated.
>>571279910NEVERMIND, WE'RE SO FUCKING BACK, THIS IS WHERE WE TURN THINGS AROUND
this dude's goal is total dark elf death right? Is it fun?
>>571280594He gets factionwide stalking + underway.
>>571280767man idk how to use stalking, but I'll give his campaign a try, total dark elf death sounds fun and not too crazy a goal compared to what I usually do (always go for ultimate)
>>571280051Hate how you end up having to recruit half shielded half unshielded saurus
>>571281023Yeah I hate it too, but it's not like replacing them is that big of a deal since either way the endgame plan is blessed saurus.
>>571280767literally skaven/beastmen
nope
>>571280594>this dude's goal is total dark elf death right? Yes.> Is it fun?Yes but a bit lackluster mechanics wise.
>>571281841my as well listen to this while playing
is it just me tho or are these shadow-walker dudes not very good? how are u supposed to use them, on skirmish mode?
>>571280904You right click ennemy army to attack it (just as you do with a regular faction) but chance of doing an ambush.>>571281210Beastmen don't have the Stalking Stance afaik, only all Skaven + Naggarythe (Bhashiva also now i think, not played here yet).
>>571280594>>571280767>faction gimmick is nonstop ambush spam>Naggaroth has 1 ambush map and it fucking sucks
Would you want sync kills back for 40k?I mean shogun 2 tier sync kills
"Do not long for peace, for there can be none while any druchii still draw breath. Embrace war as the crucible of your valediction, the means to purge this stain upon our people. Swear oaths of vengeance, not to me or your companions or to the uncaring gods, but to fallen mothers and fathers, dead sisters and brothers, slain sons and daughters. Take the darkness that the druchii have created and rob them of its power. You are the blade that will strike down the wicked. You are the shadow warrior, the faceless bringer of justice."—Alith Anar, Shadow King[3b]
>>571282027Shadow-Walkers are very good.Try to avoid doing melee with them while you still have arrows in stock.
>>571279616I wanna believe they can random gen a galaxy but I'm pretty sure they are too stupid to do that. They'll handmake every single galaxy map.
>>571282240I was just thinking this playing my first battle in warhammer 3 after that attila lotr campaign, I kept watching the melee line hoping for a cool sync but nothing happened :(
which rat lord should I play
>>571282437They gave us a pretty good idea of how the system will work in the last dev update streamA planet combines two attributes: the type of environment (ie desert, lush) and the category (ie forge world, agri world, hive world) and the world itself is generated procedurally from corresponding art assets and terrain blocks. A campaign map is made up of a series of planets ranging from 1 to "many" (they ballparked 'a large solar system' as a hypothetical upper bound) that are interconnected via space travel. Which planets are in your campaign, how big each planet is, how many planets there are and how they're connected can all be randomized.Even the bespoke campaigns will have some degree of randomization so that they aren't always completely identical, and they suggested there would be some customization options available, like adjusting the size or quantity of planets.They haven't really gone deep into how travel between planets will function mechanically beyond suggesting that it will work differently for different factions and that not every planet will connect to every other planet, so the actual network of planet connections will function as a sort of 'space terrain'My biggest concern still is that individual planets will feel too small to be proper campaign maps and that a lot of campaigns will boil down to just leapfrogging across planets with autoresolve doomstacks. I suspect that a single massive-sized planet will probably be the most popular campaign type on launch and there will probably be a lot of mods to increase the maximum planet size floating around.
>>571262154>KNIGHTSNice, but I prefer Landsknechts
After the Battle of Griffon Pass, Alith Anar captured seven hundred Dark Elves and had them nailed high upon the white cliffs overlooking the narrow valley, where they hung until they died, and then their corpses hung for years afterwards until their flesh rotted and their bones tumbled into piles beside the road.
>>571283282My biggest concern is the only faction I like isn't in it..But besides that, just absolutely no campaign map movement with stances is so stupid. I love DoW2, it's amazing, played it solo and in coop countless times but that game gives its characters value and lore and shit. Total war battles are absolutely boring when no Lord is involved. Now without the campaign map, I fear it's gonna be DoW2 but instead of awesome squads and captain, you have literal whos.
>>571284337>Total war battles are absolutely boring when no Lord is involvedyikes

>>571284414There is a reason 95% of all battles across all total war players are auto resolve.
>>571284849>he never knew the joy of fighting a battle with a general-less army in rome 1, having a random captain from the battle be elevated to general status, nurturing his stats and exploits until he's a legendary figure in his own right rather than pre-determined and pre-cut characters bleh
>>571284971I played shogun 2 and med2. It was nothing but archer spam.
>>571285258okay, that's irrelevant to the fact that the best lords in all TW are the ones that start from absolute 0
>>571285334start from 0?
>>571277284I like the non-vortex campaign like the tomb kings, if only they kept the smaller maps in WH3...
>>571285414not a preset, a complete rng character like the ones that are created when you win a battle on an army without a general in rome/med, then you get to make your own story for that general instead of having it be pre-determinedin other words the best TW battles are ones WITHOUT a "lord"
>>571285547Please never speak to me ever again.
>>571285757rumors abound that 40k will return to exactly such a system...
>>571284849That's really just because the AI only really presents you with two kinds of battles:20 stacks with cookie-cutter template armies you face a million times over the course of a campaign and which become min-numbingly repetitive to face because they're always the sameAnd completely combat-ineffective ministacks full of shitters because the AI struggles to recruit properly.There's no real point in playing out decisive autoresolve victories against shitstacks because the battle is won by just walking forward on triple-speed and waiting for the AI to die. And while fighting the AI's elite stacks has a purpose in the wider scheme of the campaign, it just gets boring fighting the same armies on the same maps over and over again.But also, and probably most importantly: massively overtuned free replenishment makes it so that the outcome of a battle doesn't really matter as long as you win. There's no incentive to manually fight a battle because you can win it better than autoresolve, no reason to turn a close victory into a decisive one because any consequence is erased in a turn or 2.TW of course has always had a problem that at some point a campaign runs its course and battles become repetitive and tedious, but over time it seems like the devs have progressively made that problem worse instead of better and their approach has basically just been to shorten campaigns, trivialize empire management and encourage more autoresolves and fewer manually battles.
>>571286570>But also, and probably most importantly: massively overtuned free replenishment makes it so that the outcome of a battle doesn't really matter as long as you win. There's no incentive to manually fight a battle because you can win it better than autoresolvegiga trvthke, especailly certain factions have ABSURD replenishment, casualties mean absolutely nothing
>>571286570For me, I AR a lot because the AI tends to have absolute nigger units.When they have half an army of marauder horsemen or like 8 pieces of artillery and gun horses ontop.. I just know it's gonna be a brain melting test of patience. I don't wanna hunt shooting horses with 90 speed for 30 fucking minutes while watching my infantry melt. AR.. done..

>>571287641these fucks are genuinely the scariest dudes in all of warhammer fantasy, no other faction comes closebeastmen are just funny, they're like the scary version of beastmen
>>571287641
>>571287779For me, the scariest dudes in all of WHFB are Skrag and his gorgers. Specially the idea that you'd usually find them in a dark cave.
>>571287779The Sleeper aka Tyrannid of WHFB is pretty nasty, if only GW would give us more creatures older than Old Ones.
I underestimated these pieces' of shit waagh mode
>>571288591Delves can only hope that Murderous prowess is just as good as Waaaagh
>>571288801maybe I just dunno how to play helves but these battles are a bit rough so far

>>571289064you need to be more mobile as Alith Anar and use more of those shadow warriors and shadow walkers. Honestly, just ditch those lineholders and go fully skirmish mode because the AI can't handle stalking units.
>>571289064You shadow walkers had most of their ammo left on the screenshot you showedDelves have fairly short range you can dump all your ammo on them without taking any damage backJust get some cavalry to deny any fast unit dives and skirmish them to shit
>>571289550>>571290658so just full stack of shadow walkers and leave em on skirmish for the AI to chase around? not a particular fan of that playstyle but I'll do it for Anar's stack if so
>>571291439alith anar benefits a lot from high elf monsters, eagles and lions are both tougher and able to just run away from stuff while the shadow archers shoot
>>571291439Just micro them buddy it's not that dificult and you can keep them out of shooting range of most units, get in some silver helms or dragon princes so you can bodyblock enemy cav/monsters that are too fast for the shadow boys to bring down on their own

Imagine Skarbrand's rage at sailing all the way to Ulthuan to mouthfuck Alarielle and Tyrion only to find the hold druchii hag has taken over the whole island
been trying to install EB2 in a different folder than what I have medieval2 installed and I had to crack the game and generate a steaminterfaces files, which I havent had to do in a long time, for the crack to finally work and the mod to boot, now I'm considering also throw m2ex in it, I know it works, probably will need to edit the bat file, but then I'd also need to unfix the pikes because eb2 already has buffed pikes and they will be op if I don't cancel the pike fix
>>571304629thats why you are a dwarf instead"yep island full of elves thats a grudging"
>>571279351What is your problem with "I Emperor"?
>>571308082yep.

>>571309217>that resbruh
First time playing Ogres since all the reworksWhy the fuck were Tyrants nerfed? They used to have a skill with +30% weapon strength and were one of the best generic lords but seems like they removed it.
>>571256382I'd like to see a more complex economic system with different types of resources instead of just "gold"
>>571314707Go play Total War Pharaoh.
Shhh...The minotaur is sleeping, don't disturb him...
*burns it and eats its charred flesh*
>>571317798
>>571318319sniff
>>571313198Nvm, just seen the whole faction has been buffed to shit on the campaign map.Honestly, I have so much hate for the Total War community. They constantly want reworks for factions they claim are "shit" just because they don't have 10 different random recycled mechanics that give you free shit to make your campaign a cake walk.The most fun campaigns I've played in this series are still Warriors of Chaos & Beastmen in Warhammer 1.These campaigns are no longer fun because they have 'unique' mechanics which basically make you so overpowered you can conquer the entire map by turn 50. I feel like CA could gut half of these factions and the game would be more balanced and enjoyable.
>>571320572i've been saying warhammer is just too fast paced, the amount of shit u can get done within 20 turns in warhammer 3 is absolutely bonkers, you can steamroll a good chunk of the map, I get it people generally prefer faster campaigns, but its not as satisfying as building up, for example in campaign dawnless days, the campaign despite taking 200+ turns doesn't feel long at all, you can feel like you're awakening something and building up then the payoff when you go on the offensive is hugein wh3 you can take literally any settlement asap with your starting army on most campaigns, and keep doing it, and keep doing it, I only vaguely remember in WH1, but I kinda liked the whole only settle climate your civ can handle thing, it always led to aesthethic borders with dwarf bros cihlling in their ancestral mountain homes and the empire n other humans on the lower lands, I believe the campaigns weren't this fast paced either
>>571320004
>>571320572>>571320995Is there a mod that nerfs the buffs the faction mechanics give you?
>>571320572>by turn 50.But that's late campaign already.
What did they mean by this?
anyone happen to know what mod I'm playing here? Several years old screenshot
>almost a collective 1000 hours on the Warhammer games>never, ever played the Greenskins even onceMaybe I should change that. Which one of them is the most fun? With fun being interesting mechanics or abilities or just buttons for me to press while I watch units collide.
Why is a regular hoplite lower tier than a Scythian one? Scythian is cheaper and has slighty worse stats
>>571323265>is cheaperThis is the main thing, cost effective hoplites are great.
one big problem with the M2EX is that it doesn't have a frame limiter in game, the only way to limit the fps is with vsync and vsync is laggy as shit, so I'm running the game with specialk and the difference in responsiveness and latency is brutal
>>571322296
why does chaos god faction mechanics except tarmurkan suck
>>571322891thera I think
>>571324451Sir, Arbaal is teleporting right on top of your location.Good luck.
>>571325226o yeah its def thera i was just thinking htat by looking at lists of fantasy med 2 overhauls thanks, pretty cool mod, all the extreme versions of cultural groups irl got put into their own fantasy empiress and u can make em fight shame I Got so spoiled by playing the post shogun 2 games, going back to med 2 is hard because of the camera, controls n widescreen
>>571325482I remember it being kinda shit, the map is unnecessarily large and it just plays like vanilla with some fantasy units>going back to med 2 is hard because of the camera, controls n widescreentry m2ex
>>571325664yeah its the best option so far, but breaks a ton of mods in diff ways, for example third age can't play it with it, but i'll prob try a vanilla med 2 run with m2ex
>>571325789which of the third age mods is the latest/most played?
>>571325948divide and conquer, i checked on their discord, people have gotten it to load, but it breaks a ton of random stuff like animations or mechanics, give it a try if u want tho I guess
>>571325948DaC, but I recommend Dac AGO insteadhttps://www.divide-and-conquer-ago.com/
>>571326325>>571326407didn't they remake this for total war attila? or am I going crazy?
>>571326526yes, I posted my gondor campaign for a few days, but i believe that's its own mod, unrelated to DaC, and DaC is still getting updates, the attila mod is still in beta basically with parts of the map missing, battle maps and many mechanics, third age/DaC whatever has 10x more finished content, but its cursed to be stuck on med 2 engine filtering plebs...
>>571324451N'kari is as fun as it gets mechanicswise
>>571326407what's the tldr, just some extra content + better AI?
>>571326758they are all going eop to try and fix that, eb2 is also going eop, but now that m2ex dropped, I'd wish they would use that instead of eop because it's pretty good and easy to install
>>571327786how do i eopdo i need to get the DAC beta? does it come with it? or install it separately?
>>571327786they're all oldheads from twc so m2ex modifying the executable has them up in knots. it's a shame too because eop's solutions for med 2 limits are jank and barely functional compared to m2ex
>>571327997so i installed eop but i legit see no difference, it doesn't have unit drag or free cam like m2ex hasI hate this pitch camera bs in med 2 so fucking much JUST LET ME MOVE THE CAM FREELY fuck
This took half an hour jesus christ. Blessed be the Control Large Army button and the crappy dead garrison that enabled it.
>>571328485You have to change the camera to TW camera instead of RTS camera and use keys to lower and raise the camera pitch retard-kun.
>>571328909TW camera is the old shitty one of the presets though, no? the keybinds are retarded, and I don't like using keys to do it either, m2ex lets you hold middle mouse and move the cam in first person like modern TWs which is absolutely insane for med2
>>571329014Whether it's shitty or not, you have a solution to the pitch camera bullshit you're complaining about.
>>571327420it spun off from DaC v3 I think, so by now it's quite different to regular DaCI just think it's better, more interesting scripts and whatnot
What about third age reforged? last update was 2024 which is even newer than the latest DaC, its listed as compatible with m2ex
HOW MANY FUCKING THIRD AGE MODS ARE THERE
>>571329337oh waitno campaignzz
>>571329427kekclassic TW players really fuckin like LOTR
>>571323176Probably Grom - he gives you factionwide food buffs that are a lot of fun.I personally really enjoyed having Black Orcs with Beserk, even if them losing control wasn't that helpful.
attila was released when GoT was popular and 90% of the mods are related to GoTsame with medieval 2 and lotr
man the m2ex dev is such a femboytalented as fuck thoughI'll either do a good ol vanilla med 2 run or try and get SS running since 6.4 and 7.0 are listed as compatible
I don't like people that use anime avatars.They are probably worshippers of Slaanesh.
I really advice running m2ex with special k, the frame pacing is so much better with the frame limiter instead of vsync
>>571330354why limit the frame rate at all tho?
>>571330340anime website
>>571330621I have a 9070 xt, if I don't frame limit it it'll run the game at 500 fps and pull 300w
>>571330736meh let the GPU stretch its legs a bit playing it rn with no frame limit jesus christ tho, its like a remaster, it touches up so much stuff, for example more HD text boxes, small qol like total amount of units in the squad shown etc, the biggest shit being unit drag and free cam while holding wheel tho, i wish divide & conq was playable on tihs, maybe some day soon
How do I install m2ex?
>>571331295download the latest release, extract to your med 2 folder, click m2ex.exe, done
these kinda controls on med 2 are absolutely mad
>>571331823that's literally all i've ever wanted for m2, definitely going to check that out
>>571331908check out the ingame settings too since there's a bunch of new options, like edge panning
>>571332005Did I miss a M2 remaster?
>>571330340Slaaneshi website
A reminder that N'Kari can almost certainly 1v1 your favourite Legendary Lord.
>>571332745NO
>>571332370it's the m2ex mod shits amazing for modernizing med2gonna try a good ol vanilla campaign with it
>>571333127and a new release was literally just put out 1 minute ago
>>571333127>>571330114damn the dev guy just uploaded another ver lolgonna try it tomorrow though
HB
>>571333127How can I use WASD to move the camera instead of the arrow keys?
>>571332005>edging pain roasting
>>571334157you need to go into controls and select the FPS preset and it works like modern TW, with WASD for cam movement and all that, alternatively u can try to edit the other "total war" preset yourselfand also in camera settings u need to set RTS camera if u want it to behave the most like modern total war+ disable restrict cam while ur at it that shit sucks
Wtf is taking TCALUK so long to remaster Medieval 2
>>571334471think its cause rome remaster didn't sell as well as they thought it would
1. Kholek Suneater2. Skarbrand 3. Ku'gath4. Be'lakor5. N'Kari
>>571334527CA is so fucking stupid that way. For example, if they remastered M2 FIRST then they would have made waaay more money. If instead of Thrones of Britannia they made a Saga-style game in the middle east during the Crusades they would have made waaay more moeny. If instead of Total War Pharaoh and Troy they made them the same game right off the bat they would have made waaay more money.It's like they always try to fund the projects that are guaranteed to sell better with shittier ones that most people don't want.
>>571334272Sorry I'm a tard, where can I find the FPS preset? I don't see a controls tab
>>571334527Wasn't the remaster a port of a mobile remaster?
>>571335146nvm I found it lols
>>571335146it is there
>>571335146options > keyboard settings>>571335184yeah, and there's a med 2 for mobile by feral too, but i believe its pretty much 1:1 with the PC ver, unlike the rome one, they didn't bother changing stuff
>>571335337what do you use for graphic settings? no idea how I should set it now that I have a newer pc and this is an old game
What do you think it'd feel like to get puked on by a troll?
>>571335459bruh just max everything out, idk, I do pic rel and unit scale isn't set in video its set in game settings btwdefault is normal, i set it to huge
>>571335716if your PC somehow can't handle this shit just decrease from extreme to high I guess, you never wanna go sub max settings in old PC games tho lol the one issue that keeps this mod from being perfect for me is how whenever you're max zoomed in and moving the camera with WASD + mouse wheel, it bounces off the terrain, making it kinda bouncy and wobbly, idk, I asked the dev guy to fix it and I'll see if he's autistic enough to actually do it, even with that bug though (which is in med2) the mod is fantastic, i hope it'll be playable for divide n conquer one day, have a bit of LOTR fever, playing age of the ring battle for middle earth (its kinda like total war lite for LOTR)
When are they adding more rats and how long until rats are added to 40k?
Tau women owe me sex and companionship
>>571336703you wouldn't really betray humanity for this, right?
>>571336703Tau are ugly as fuck wtf are you people smoking
>>571337178The one canon depiction of a young tau woman still makes me go "would".
Total war Gaza when
>>571336879I mean, it's all a matter of perspective, you know, is betraying the Imperium truly equivalent to betraying all of humanity when it's just one possible lifestyle and ideolo- yes, yes I would, fuck it.

>>571338951the ugly face is actually a helmet similar to an oni mask and whatnot
>>571339003
>>571339176Whats the meaning of this logo? Like the shit in the bg
Which are you going to play first:Space MarinesImperial GuardOrksEldar
>>571339772imp guard always, my goats, coolest faction in the setting
>>571339772Probably Imps, possibly Orks if I'm in that mood when the game actually arrives, potentially Eldar if I'm having a really weird day, certainly not Spess Muhreens. I'm not giving GW's favored children my TW40K virginity.
>>571339772Either IG or SM. Basically I just want to build a tank firing line and blast shit with heavy firepower so between the two it just depends on which one has more interesting mechanics or better access to vehicles.
>>571339726The galxy divided by Imperium administrion.
>>571339772
>>571339772no chorfs no buy
>>571339772the only races I like in that stupid game are the imperial guards and the mechanicus adeptus
>>571339772I'll wait for the warmaster of chaos to release
can tyranids or necrons become chaos worshippers?
>>571339772Imp Guard forever and always, the modding is going to be crazy.The only letdown is that factions introduced first always have the least audio variety. We'll be addressing Tyranid and Tau units like they are Orks or something.
>>571340554No. This is actually one of the hardest and most set in stone "No"s of the setting.
>>571340554... no? one is bug-like creatures in a hive mind zerg from starcraft style (Which are based on them) the other ones are soulless smug machine zombies/mummies, both are the ultimate anti chaos shit, and if either of them win chaos are finished
>>571330340>I don't like people that use anime avatars.Same. Fucking sick of seeing anime 'art' shit in general.
>>571340890anime art website
>>571340686>>571340668but i thought chaos could do anything
>>571341007nids or necrons both don't have emotions so how can emotion energy parasites affect them?
>>571341007Not really, no.
>>571341134yeah but neither do inanimate objects but that doesn't stop chaos from making them all fleshy and tentacley
>>571341134couldn't nurgle infect them to take them over like poxwalkers
>>571341392necrons ain't alive so no, but possibly nurgle could affect nids cut off from the hive mind tho? but if they're connected no way, hive mind has this thing called shadow in the warp that whereever its active it disrupts warp and immaterium shit so chaos niggers can't do shit to alter its plans>>571341381they can obviously hurt the crons with their bullshit but they can't use crons or nids to make more chaos, so they'll eventually lose a battle of attrition, also ironically crons are best vs nids, and nids are best vs chaos, but crons would hate nids taking over even more than chaos, cause they wanna be alive one daybascially crons are just OP
>>571341392>>571341381Not Necrons because they also have a technology to suppress the warp based on blackstone like Cadian Pylon. And I remember that one of the hivefleet got lost in the warp and came out unmolested too.>>571341707>cause they wanna be alive one daynah, not every Necron wants that. Someone like Imotekh is more than happy with his metal body, Nekrossor Ammentar just wants to bring back The Nightbringer, Orikan wants to transcend into an energy being, etc.
how the fuck are you supposed to build orc armies against arbaal or tamurkhan? I have mass black orc bosses on grimgors army but after kholek I have both tamurkhan and arbaal declaring war on me and coming from two different directions and there is effectively no time to bring grimgor back to recruit black orcs and whichever side grimgor isn't is getting destroyed
Is chaos thhe same in 40k than in fantasy where if the galaxy gets destroyed they can just move on to another reality?This was kinda gay
>>571342713That's basically what happened after End Times, GW really like chaos for some reason.
>>571342713no1 knows, according to most lore I think tho they only have dominion in our galaxy 100%, and every time they tried to reach out of the galaxy they ran into shit which stopped them, but their goal is 100% galactic destruction anyways according to older lore cause idk grimderp lol, technically they win just by keeping this status quo but anyway chaos piss me off so I'd accept a nid eating everything or a cron uprising ending before I accept those retards winning again
>>571343062>before I accept those retards winning againNOT IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT
>>571343303haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaapu spit on baldie
>>571343303I still say that the End Times should have been caused by a Dwarf character seeing Malekith in the avatar holding hands circle. Unable to withold his vengeance autism, hacking the Elves head off. End of world be damned, a grudge is a grudge is a grudge.
>10 years milking tww3you've enabled this
If CA isn't going to optimise their campaign map, why the fuck don't they add DLSS as an option? I understand they might need more time for graphical options as the game only released three years ago.
I know it's going to be a total war game but I find discussion about the 40k game to be annoying. Not because it's 40k, but because all we more or less know is the title.Despite the recent 5 minutes of psuedo-gameplay, we know almost nothing about it. There are no credible leaks or further information provided. There are no release dates, not even on the beta-testings which are supposedly coming at some point. We know there will be 4 factions at launch and it will be galactic map based. That's it. Everything else is up for debacle. There's more lore on the Second Coming than there is on Total War 40K.
>>571345818p sure ur campaign map lags due to cpu not gpu
game is playable with a controller bro, it's going to suck ass, don't expect anything but disappointment
does anyone have the dumb hypermuscle image of alarielle that kinda looks like buff riku from the wh2 daysi need it for a joke but i can't find it on b4k
>>571346375this is rly no big deal

Shame the devs are too guttless to repeat it.>GorbadDa Plan is fun without being powercreep bullshit. The only real issue is 'Erd Mentality being way to OP.
>>571232667This is the first person I've ever been subbed to on yt that actually full blown troon'd out
>>571259682>I strongly believe that just won't happen.You're coping. There's 24 factions who's DLCs will keep the lights on at CA for decades. The VP even said "I look forward to working on 40k with you for MANY years to come" in the last showcase
40k will be a GaaS
The Warriors of Chaos Campaign is literally nothing but fun, stand up battles versus one other army.
>>571283282I really hope you get to go anywhere you want in the galaxy after you complete your local thematic starting solar system/star system. The combination of randomly generated planets with static landmarks like Terra/Mars, the Tau Empire, space marine homeworlds, etc.. would be really fkn sick. It would be neat if, lets say, you start in the top left of the galaxy, finish your campaign up there, then decide you want to zip across the map to the 500 worlds of Ultramar to help them defend it/help invade it as an example. I'm seriously hoping we get some IE version of the galaxy map with total sandbox freedom.
>>571349736I didn't watch it nor do I keep up with what he does. I didn't even know that and his voice is fucking hilarious
>>571262286>They said they'd make an army painter so they can't even do the whole chapter DLC stuff.Aside from the obvious race packs they can and will milk the fuck out of, they'll probably add a bunch of named chapter master lord packs with new units, variants, and heroes. You don't HAVE to use the army painter, as the game already feature the smurfs as the posterboy astartes faction. For example they might leave out Ravenguard or something then include a DLC with them + a bunch of sneaky stealth units or whatever.My guess is each race will have named factions with static start positions, most likely mixed with a Daniel the daemon DIY + paint option that has you starting on a randomly generated world
>>571262286Oh you naive childTake a look at how space marine 2 releases cosmetics and you will see what awaits us>paid paints>paid decorations>paid banners and icons>paid faction traits to mix and match >paid voicesYou have no idea

>>571353732no lmao
>>571353732warhammer universe is made by redneck britbongs
>>571353732>aren't they all nerds that know history or some shitthat used to be the case, but it's just another feature not a bug.
>>571352871>>571353732I know, right? Can you believe these goof bags spelled "demon" as "daemon" as well? Or the elven pronunciation of "monkey" as "mon-keigh"? It has to be foolish oversight and not the unique flavouring of a fantasy setting.You are clearly very smart and should hit them up with an Email to let them know straight away. This error has persisted since the 80's for goodness sake!
>>571355316>Can you believe these goof bags spelled "demon" as "daemon" as welldaemon is a valid transliteration of the original greek so you're already batting 0 mr. "flavor of the setting"
>>571355656Ok, good one. You should still notify them as the first individual in 4 decades to have this original thought though.

>>571339772Space Marines for sure, call me a sucker or casual but I've always loved them. After that a toss up between Eldar and Guard. I do like a good baneblade.>>571353579I would bet my left testicle that the Black Templars will be a DLC faction. I am sure that you'll be able to make a faction and call it BT's with the color scheme and symbol and everything, but actually playing with units and appropriate voicelines certainly not. Personally I'd rather wait till they inevitably get fleshed out but I am sure you can have a similar enough experience.>>571340656Guard modding would be sweet, I can imagine both creations of existing regiments unlikely to get DLC and also probably some custom autismo regiments. I just hope GW doesn't do something retarded like limit modding again, its fine if we can only keep mods to the 40K setting but if they also try and limit modding further that would suck. Hopefully its as free as it was in Warhammer 3.
spess muhreens
>>571339772>Eldar>Imperial Guard>Orks>Space MarinesIn that order, and with absolutely zero (0) Rogal Dorns when playing the Guard because they're shit models that I refuse to have anything to do with.
DaC dev on their discord told me the mod will never ever be compatible with m2ex
>>571339772I'll see the extend of customisation then I'll decide. Intrested in Eldars the most.At some point with mods, I feel like TW40k will become a Chapter Master reincarnation but for all factions, that would be fucking sweet.
>>571339772My friend is playing SM and told me I have to play Eldar so he can vassalize me
>>571383001are you some kinda cuck

>>571381670Rogal Dorns are cool and people only hate it because new thing is le bad
>>571383501show bussy
>>571383359 idk, assuming cause they already strated working on integration of that other engine expansion that's pretty much just for stability and more units, not new controls :/ EOP or whatever
Why do /tg/ fags keep bringing up their action figures? No one cares about the boardgame anymore uncs warhammer has evolved beyond that
>>571383985it's a secondary thing, they can't grasp the concept nobody cares about the dolls
/tg/ fag influx will be cancerThey won't realize that they are the secondaries here and go on about how having playstic toys makes them superior to those that don't.
>>571383985im ur le secondary for talking about the topic of this general my off topic dolls are actually more important
Imagine complaining and minis in the Warhammer general.
>>571384560we don't care about the barbies here, only the extended universe
Just imagine the /tg/ secondary seethe in here it will be so fucking funny
>>571384383I will remind them daily that Cathay is the best ever and they'll never have it.

When was the last time anyone played a Total War game in this general?
>>571335459>>571335716>>571336004I just saw this, so maybe its not the best idea to use it, I'll stick to high/highest
>>571385334I'm 95% certain I won't be able to play 40k anyway.. it won't run on my hardware.. all those falling buildings and effects.. it's not gonna go well.
>>571386028also I just started a campaign of the vanilla beyond mod with m2ex, I'll see how it goes, if any crashes etceven the campaign map is ridiculously smooth, this really is like a soft remaster
>>571386275>entirety of ireland 3 settlements Can't play these old ass games anymore for this reason, the map is so small in scope
>>571386827I mean the map is half of eurasia, dafuq do u expect, in rome 1 TW ireland is just 1 settlement, and it makes sense anyways, its a very sparsely populated place, it's not thrones of britannia Ireland
Lads I haven't visited the general in a while but where the fuck is the end times dlc? I remember we used to meme about there only being one dlc per year but is it actually true now? Fuck they've really abandoned the game haven't they?
>>571387000>dafuq do u expectI expect it to take longer than 1 turn to secure an entire country.
>>571387179the avg empire province in WH is 3 settlements too, while in lore they're supposed to be massive, way bigger than small irl countries like Ireland
Which Warhammer factions have the best infantry? Like, the top 5 facesmashers.
>>571387370I'm not going to engage with you if you're gonna try to somehow argue the modern games are just as small lmao
>>571387516not what I'm saying but the logic is the same? "I expect it to take longer than 1 turn to secure an entire country" well you can secure reikland in pretty much 2 turns, and its definitely supposed to be bigger than Ireland, they could have spaced out the settlements a ton but no one enjoys playing huge maps like that, takes too long to move anywhere
>>571387408
>>571387408khorne, nurgle, slaanesh, tzeentch, ogres
>>571387631>>571387674For the sake of actually having some variety, let's just put all four of them under just "Chaos" please.
>>571387617>not what I'm saying but the logic is the same?It isn't. Ireland is an entire country, Reikland is a province. The comparison would be if Dublin was a county with several settlements that took a couple of turns to take over. The old games scale is too small to the point where it kills immersion. I don't care how big something is or isnt in the lore, I care about how big it feels when you're playing the game. Reikland feels sufficiently large to serve as a province of a larger Empire. That's it
>>571387916no
Is this a valid strategy fellow vnderstanders?>>571277781jesus christ what an upgradeinstant download
>>571387408Wrathmongers are the uncontested top 1Chosen variants, Swordmasters of hoeth, bladesingers, tzar guard and exalted demonettes/bloodletters are some contenders for the top 5(in no particular order)
>>571387942in which case you don't know the scale that the Empire is supposed to have, in lore Reikland is supposed to be much bigger than a small irl country like Ireland, like at least 2-3x the size, and much more populous, "a country" can mean Monaco or it can mean China, idk how you treat them as the same thing, despite all that you pretty much take Reikland in the first 5 turns playing as Karl, and its easy cause its filled with meager settlements and rebels kinda like Med 2 here, they could have just as easily made karl start wtih all of Reikland or Ireland start with all of Ireland but they do it this way to give u some easy early battles to get into the groove, like all larp history/fantasy you're supposed to have some suspension of disbelief either way, Ireland would be much bigger if the whole map was just western europe, pic rel is in the kingdoms britannia campaign, when u consider the scale of the map is half of eurasia and in WH fantasy its almost the whole world, the respective sizes make sense
>>571388329that said when its taken to extremes like in napoleon TW france being 1 settlement when its the homeland of the titular character was just spit in the face
average med 2 siege engagement
>>571232487ok but this is literally me with my stuffies
>>571388329I literally just told you I dont care how big something is "supposed to be in the lore" as long as it feels sufficiently big in-game when I'm playing
>>571388747okay that's just a subjective take I guess, for me ireland being 3 bunched settlements feels fine cause I wanna at least conquer western europe as ireland before 200 turns, while even tho empire is my fav faction in WH fantasy its a bit goofy how these legendary massive provinces each with now supposedly more diversity and scale than any separate irl country in Europe can be ran over by 1 stack of zealous beastmen, unless ofc you're playing the old world mod which is a 10/10 mod for empire enjoyers but then you can't do shit like colonize n purge naggaroth as a unified empire later on, everything's a tradeoff
i like spearmen
>>571389265I prefer halberds (shields)
>>571389265>>571389837
>>571356760The answer is quite simply anonIts not latin, it has been commented several times by GW that it is heavily inspired by latin, but its not latin."Adeptus Mechanicus" makes no fucking sense in latin, yet here we are

>>571388486>like in napoleon TW france being 1 settlementWhy are you just making shit up?
>>571392292>anime pfpgross
>>571388486France being 3 settlements was literally fine because it worked with how the game was designed. It's just one of those empty cope phrases people throw around when they've never played the game.
>>571389920it directly translates to "having obtained mechanic(s)" or if you take mechanicus as a substantive it would be "having obtained a mechanical (state)" and the genders agree. only thing is mechanicus should be accusative instead of nominative. of all the counter examples you could have used you mentioned probably some of the only somewhat proper latin i've seen so far.
>>571395169true, its been like 10+ years since i played that trash, something is very off with the battles in empire/napoleon for me, tried to get into it a lot of times since and failed every time, I dunno, I think I remember it being the total war game where your guys just refuse to listen to you the most
>>571395169I played Empire and Napoleon at the time and 1 province France in Empire especially was always bullshit you faggot.

>>571438161>polandaccurate
>>571438341vanilla beyondsome vanilla ++ mod, compatible with m2ex which is how I'm playing it, works well, adds a shitton of unit variety and such
still in awe of how much this mod modernized med2, good thing that anon mentioned it the other day
>>571439649you're welcome sweetienow if only pathfinding wasn't still super fucked
good deal yes>>571440236I doubt that's fixable desu, who knows thoughits been so long since I did a med 2 campaign, I literally don't know how to read how much money I get per turn, sometimes you have more expenderies than profit but your total gold goes up regardless
>>571413606>Go to /crpg/ to ask for recommendations on an rpg I'm interested on (Banquet for Fools) and considering buying (nobody answered all day long since I asked).>Take the chance to read through some of the discussion.>Get quickly reminded why that general is genuinely one of the worst ones in this board.I don't even get it, generals with broad genres as theme are usually more chill and varied in it's discussions, but /crpg/ is a legit cesspit, it's all just Owlcat fans eternally arguing over romances and alignments and being total assholes about it. Fucking disgusting.
>>571440772more expendeture than profit that isI recently played rome 1 remaster and idgaf if the colors are goofy, the game has so much modern qol, real shame med 2 won't get that treatment
Venerable vnderstanders of /twg/, help me vnderstand this with your undoubtedly accurate and not at all borrowed from videogames knowledge of medieval military matters.Did city walls really extend this fucking far from cities? I was reading this webtoon and saw this image. Seems like a good idea to keep fields inside the walls to sustain during a siege, but also, seems like an ENORMOUS spending in resources to extend it that much.
>>571441253no, if anything it was the opposite. cities would sprawl out beyond the wallswalls are fucking expensive to build and maintain
>>571441530Yeah see, that's what I was assuming, specially because most ancient/medieval walls I've actually visited always seemed to keep things tight and close. So I saw that image and was like "...that doesn't seem right".
another thing that sets med 2 aside its so fuckin hard to tell whats going on in battles lol like where are my dudes in this messcept the small banners on top of the units ofctakes getting used to, even modernized with m2ex, I didn't really give a shit as a kidnow I see why they gave rome 1 remaster units that huge radial circle on top of em
>>571442210press the big poland button

>>571450828
recruiting chaos warriors from a tier 1 settlement capital just isn't right
>>571452119Why don't you say that to Arbaal's face?
>>571452674I'm playing him right now, and it ain't right
>ArbaalNPC faction
>>571441253Yes, in some cases they did, most famously Rome. If you had preexisting walls from an earlier time and your city contracted or centralized for whatever reason you could have a city looking like that. I don't have the maps with me but a few HRE cities looked like that as well.

>>571452119What else do you want? Another 10 factions that run around with marauder for 40turns?
>>571455967it would be nice to have a reason to use marauders at all
>>571454757and they said vibecoding was bad
>>571457242Med 2 nodding is still alive and well it's interesting to see, I see a feud is brewing between the faction that's implementing eop like a 32bit solution to stabilizing med 2 and removing limitations vs 2ex which is some 64bit shit with all this new qol and controls etc, but mods native to eop won't be able to run on this one, eeeh, I'll just stick with m2ex cause med 2 without is simply too dated for me, I got too used to the new TW controls n qolAlso there's a ton of med 2 projects in active dev, stainless steel, tsardoms, divide n conquer (and all the other third age sub mods lol), God knows what else, interesting to see
I wonder why the empire didn't just get golgfag to force archeon to be at peace to stop the end times
>>571456574There is a reason. You can use a maurauder piss stack to raze for bloodhosts since khorne is piss poor.Not wanting good units turn 1 is dumb tho.Other factions start with ranged units, cav, magic, artillery, fucking dragons.. khorne doesn't have any of that. You need to have something that deals damage. Marauders aren't doing it.
how do I get an exalted bloodthirster as arbaal?>>571457543khorne has mobile units early on. I see your point though
>>571457486m2ex is new and if the community is start they should jump into it because 64bit allows for so much more enhancements and hardware usage.
>>571458623smart*
>>571458623we'll see what happens I guess, for now it works for any "simple" mod (ones wo eop integration already in), 0 issues with vanilla beyond so far
>>571458789the EB2 dev said it'll work on the next update but not the ones after it that'll have eop, hopefully he reconsiders and redoes the work to work with m2ex
>>571459071O ye I forgor about eb2, might try it sometime but in the mood for medieval kino rn, anyway as the mod devs learn about 2ex they might pick it up, and also some1 mentioned scripting features which eop has but 2ex not yet so hopefully that flamboyant dev chad's autism can make him implement it
>>571451210Ratfags are such talentless faggots that they have to steal funny lizardmen memes and then literally shit them up. Pathetic
That's a nice trait... tempted to just hire him and let him sit in my capital
Trying to figure out why I can't get into TWW3 like I did 1 and 2, and I think I know why. The gameplay is just too extreme and arcadey. The map is overasaturated and there isn't a natural build up of strength to face an overwhelming enemy force. In 1 and 2 you didn't feel the pressure until turn 80 or so after you've consolidated your natural borders and then faced the invasion of chaos. In 3, right from turn 1, its live or die with enemies immediately surrounding you from all sides. No natural progression, no consolidation, just straight into fuck you.

>>571410419god she's so hot I bet she's very sweaty under all those clothes and she probably calls me a simple human
>>571462609i love the smaller scale fights at the beginning of the game when armies are forced chaff + 'victory condition' units, and i am a big fan of how caravans keep it going into mid-game20vs20 always feel like the initial clash is also the decisive event, given the power creep of charge bonuses and magic, there isn't even any place to do nonsense like maneuver warfare or exploiting local superiority while being otherwise evenly matched

>>571473215warscape ruined that feeling
>>571473502i think it's just fantasy being fantasy, at least for mesome of my favourite fights are siege defenses (!!!) with garrison vs not-doomstack opponents - my side would have skeletons and dogs, so I'd have to use chaff and exploit the shit out of flanking, treating dogs like fragile glass cannons, exploiting towers as much as possiblein all my battles where i had kdai destroyers, giants, tier 3 infantry, 200% spell power, my fondest memories are still of that siege defense with skeletons, zombies, and dogs
m2ex runs the menu at 1800 fps if you don't vsync it or framecap with a softwarethey should code a sensible 300 fps cap into the mod for the people who don't know how to use their computers

>>571440885>generals with broad genres as theme are usually more chillNo, they aren't. People liking X are annoyed they have to scroll through posts discussing Y and Z they don't care about. Any such general just begs for tribal infighting. Balkanization into separate generals is always better.
>>571477701Properly done generals with broad themes lead to you broadening your horizons. /crpg/ started and has stuck around because people who like CRPGs usually love to get recommendations for more. Now it's probably cancer but that's because this shithole of a website has gotten unbearably tribal.
anyone else having problem with bashivas artifacts barely spawning?
>>571477957>lead to you broadening your horizons. worthless memeAll it does is forcing people to scroll through numerous posts they don't care about, wasting their time which is obviously annoying and from that hatred arises which prompts shitposting. Minor title will be flooded and forgotten about anyway. You can go to a different general/thread if you want to "broaden your horizons". Everyone wins then. Splitting and balkanization is always the answer. Segregate topics into ethnostates instead of making globohomo dystopia /crpgg/ was owlcat pathfinder general which opened up once discussion started to slow down, exactly this same way /coopg/ was vermintide general which opened up. Actual purpose being to use randoms to naively bump the thread hoping to get a discussion for their minor game only to get ignored since the actual topic of discussion is still this same. Broad topic misleads such naive people and kills off potential discussion of any such title by preventing creation of dedicated to it general/thread making discussion of it literally impossible on this site.This is why you don't see such retardation on other sites. Take RPGCodex as an example even. They do not force all crpgs into one thread, discussing witcher, baldurs gate and some random title in one thread would make the third game completely unnoticeable between bg vs witcher war. It has it's own place for this very reason.Regarding /crpgg/ separate Rogue Trader general existed simply because it had so many players it could compete with Pathfinders which were still discussed. Once both threads slowed down it was folded into /crpgg/ since it's still Owlcat game and overtook discussion completely, turning it into another 40k thread and preventing discussion of other titles.

>>571485316you wouldn't be able to see anything bro, you'd be driven slowly insane
>>571485464I find the story of Khorne punishing him mega retarded.Like.. the blood god does not care where the blood flows from.. but when it's his he bitches?
>>571485502whatevs
>>571485656nigga he tried to backstab him that's not khorne shit that's bitchy tzeench shit? if he challenged him to a fight he'd prob get mega rewarded but he took a coward route, he should have destroyed him for thst not just punish, doesn't befit his favorite demon
Karl is sought after by all the female LL's and they are all out of his league.
>>571485920even mother stanky leg?
>>571485809You do realize he was mind controlled, right? Skarbrand didn't choose that. Slaanesh made him do it.
>Arbal the undefeated>defeat him>he just comes back with the same titleSuffering a defeat as Arbal should just result in a game over
>>571485967None can compare with OUR KARL
>>571486024oh didn't know thatzzz
>>571486050It does, but only when you play as him.
>>571485809Probably not, Khorne might find it amusing a mortal like Arbaal offer him a duel, but Skarbrand is a daemon that held a lot of his favour, so he might see it as a defiance that should warrant punishment.
>>571486179not slaanesh, was tzeentch.. but yeah, he was manipulated to do it
>>571339772Imperial Guard is the histoid faction
>>571486283There's a diff between that and mind control, if he chose to do it it warrants serious punishment, it's like the herald of slanesh putting on a hijab
>>571486553You think you have any sort of will when Tzeentch plays with your mind? Nothing you think is your own will anymore. You are being fed propaganda that puts goebbels to shame.
>>571485656chaos gods are hypocritical little bitches because they are EVIL, what is hard to understand about this?
>>571486349built for BWC
do imperial guards ever fight eachother
>>571486704cool, still not mind control
>>571428223>the gobbo in the backkek
>>571486979All the time (relatively) cause there's tons of corrupt nobles and feudal lords that use their own civil guard regiments to fight their petty squabbles, not even counting loyalist vs traitor guard shit, u should play space marine 1/2 even tho it's about space Marines the guard depiction in it is peakhttps://youtube.com/shorts/wHU3eNAwaFIThat 2nd chad guardswoman I love cadians
>>571486979If some regiment decides to side with one sure, it was stated that the majority of the time IG will fight rebellions rather than xenos.
>>571486895no idea, why are you asking me that question?>>571487063but it is by definitionI even just hit up google to make sure. That is mind control.
>>571487206btw by that anons logic these guardsmen did a better job at resisting tzeench corruption than sissybrand
>>571487327Mind control is when u fully get stripped of free will with magic or drugs or smth, not when u get propaganda'd
>>571487467The dictionary disagrees with u. Go argue with the book, not me.
>>571487506you're literally an esl, you have no room to be arguing with english speakers about their language
>passfag can't differentiate between being mind controlled and being provokedjust ignore that retard.
>>571487784Stop trying to mind control me
>>571487738I'm not arguing, I'm repeating what google and wikipedia say. So if you've got a problem with it, bitch at them. Maybe u are smarter than those 2. Who knows.
>>571487784You know actual mind control hypnosis is just an eleborate provocation, right?
>>571486979Yes, it's actually genuinely the most common sort of engagement for them together with fighting smaller tribes of orks that still haven't built up to a Waaagh. If any other non-Imperium aligned major faction enters the conflict, that means it's no longer just routine and you're probably involved in a big fucking war even if it hasn't properly started yet.
>>571487206>>571487274>>571488030interesting. now here is my next question:do space marines ever fight eachother (non chaos ones)
>>571488262You have no idea bro. Space Marines, in general, are fucking dicks. Not every conflict between them is Badab tier, that was something else, but there are chapter rivalries, chapter schemes and intrigues, chapters getting pissy at each other because both of them responded to the same distress call and are butthurt that the other chapter does things slightly different, etc.There's even a space marine chapter whose specialty is destroying other loyalist space marine chapters, not kidding. The Minotaurs.
>>571488262>I don't care who the Imperium sends, I am NOT paying taxes!
>>571488262That's obvious, we have badab war, month of shame, and war of the false primarch, but big rebellion involving marines are rarely shown.
We should kill the emperor and balkanize the empire
>>571488424>Minotaursthey're such a dick and I love them for it, they even kill a custodes too apparently.
>>571487206It's worth noting that most of the time the local forces doing a rebellion technically aren't the Imperial Guard and are usually not as well trained or equipped as actual Guard regiments, and I'd say it's more common for the Imperial Guard to be called in to put down actual grassroots rebellions done by the local population rather than some administration deciding they're going to secede/not pay taxes/etc. so the Imperial Guard and whatever's left of the local soldiery are usually on the same side.
>>571488592how about nyo
>>571488659Not really surprising, they're the High Lord's lapdogs, and if the Custodes ever annoyed anyone, it was probably the High Lords.
>>571488592>Warhammer 40k: Age of Neoth edition.
There should be an option to Balkanize your current faction's empire in TW Warhammer. Just splits it up to mostly equal parts that are independent states
>>571488504>but big rebellion involving marines are rarely shownBecause they are rare, for the most part Guilliman's Codex Astartes reforms aimed at reducing the risk of a large Space Marine rebellion have done their job.
>>571488659>>Minotaurs>they're such a dickthere is literally nothing dickish about kicking traitor ass>urr durr muh poor lamentersdemented space vampires who sided with Lugft Huron Blackheart the Blood Reaver as he plunged the Imperium into a sector wide civil war because he hated the civilian government and wanted to get away with tax fraud>they wanted to throw hands with the custodes my poor golden boys :(those overhyped banana marines were committing high treason and orchestrating a coup d'etat, they had it coming toothe Minotaurs are not dicks, they're just a friendly reminder the military is supposed to serve the civilian government and space marines are supposed to serve Humanity, not the other way aroundif that hurts some chapters' fee-fees, too bad
>>571489246>banana marines were committing high treason and orchestrating a coup d'etat, they had it coming too... it was the exact opposite? and the custodes won as usual
i'm also guessing that necrons and tyranids DON'T civil war themselvesmaybe tau too
>>571489246>Primaris marines in a Lamenters vs. Minotaurs image
>>571489706???necrons literally whole thing is civil wars and its the only thing keeping them from raping the whole galaxy, if they united they would be unstoppable, but every necron dynasty holds ancient grudges between each other and wants different things, so they're in a constant state of in-fighting, tau almost but not 'yet I think (farsight's shit), nids ofc not
>>571489721Minotaurs tracked them down for a second go. No orders to do it, just felt like it.
>>571489706>>571490058Ackshually, tyranids ALSO do it. But it's only in one specific context, and that's genestealer cult infested planets getting invaded by a hive fleet that's not the one the genestealer patriarch came from. In that case, they see the tyranids as they are and fight back as normal imperials would.
>>571489706>NecronThey fight all the time even before being space robots. One of the reasons for the War in Heaven was to unite their civilizations and stop the War of Succession.>NidsIt was noted that sometimes different hivefleets will fight each other, then consume the defeated fleet's biomass, but there is no clear reason why.>TauLol, no. Farsight exists.
>>571490193niche asf but i guess bro
>>571489706>>571490058When two different hive fleets stumble across each other they'll fight to the death as part of their whole survival of the fittest shtick but it doesn't happen very often.
>>571490058>>571490193>>571490217damn well i don't know jack shit thenyet
>>571490217the t'au have never fought farsightnot 'yet anyway>>571490245crons are truly a fucked race because 98% of them lost their minds when the whole conversion happened so only their nobility still retains thought and sentience, the cron warriors are just emotionless robots, so maybe that's where the confusion comes from, they just obey the nobility which are relatively few, they're the ones that make all the decisions for the race
>>571490217>>571490058I don't think Farsight and the Tau empire have ever actually fought? Farsight just seceded and the etherals forbade everyone of contacting him, but there's never been any actual violence between them.
so the new m2ex fixed the whole camera bumping off terrain when moving it around with free-view thing, its now smooth just like in modern TW, a day after I bitched to the dev about it so I like to think had a small impacthis autism is amazing
>>571490331Well, actually, if you read the newer stuff, it's kinda implied that the lower Necron Warriors and to a certain extent Immortals have mental shackles that suppress their personalities and reinforce their obedience. It's "I have no Mouth and I must scream" shit.
>>571490834can you tilt the camera with the C and V keys or no
>>571490551jesus units in medieval 2 just DON'T fucking rout do they? at least in ranged engagements, they just keep shooting >>571491312there was something about the total war control scheme being fixed in the changelog, so probably, but I don't use that, I tilt it by holding mouse wheel and moving it

>>571441253Tang Dynasty Chang'an never actually grew large enough for it to fill its massive walls(despite having a population of like 1 million at its height) so that what would have been the southernmost "wards" of the city were in fact farms and gardens.
>>571499693>despite having a population of like 1 million at its height
>>571485015If both their biggest upcoming games fail will they die?Gee who knows...?
>>571500036Chink census data was meticulously and dare I say autistically accurate so I fully trust them on this. They accurately recorded the population drop from the Han to the Jin dynasty as a result of the warlord conflicts. I don't have the numbers on me but it was a pretty crazy. A city maintaining one million citizens at the time was also perfectly feasible, Rome at 100 AD had over a million occupants.

You’ll be tuning in, right bros?Nah, but actually who watches this shit?Warhammer nerds or regular total war fans are probably off-put by vtubershit, and vtubefags probably don’t want to see their virtual girlfriend hamming up to and playing vidya with the pear golem.It is so lost on me.>subscribed to loremasterWatching him basedface at total war trailers is a guilty pleasure of sorts.
>>571505793>Warhammer nerds or regular total war fans are probably off-put by vtubershitmaybe the 30+ yo oldschool fans, tons of zoomers play fantasy and there's even a surprisingly large zoomer fanbase of the old history games, lots of overlap with paradoxslop in that group which are filled with weebs

Which greenskin LL would make the best hentai villain if they were orcs/goblins from hentai?

>>571514039Greenskins don't have dicks
>>571514550>if they were orcs/goblins from hentaiCome on anon, exercise your imagination a bit, you're playing a fantasy game
Imagine if there was a Slaaneshi LL who was cute and had a cute voice
Ahh shit, here we go again
>>571517937Based. Malekith has great voice actor. In general character/unit voices are pretty much the highest quality thing in the game Darkshards! FOR SIGMAAARR!!! Astragoth Zolahoo!
>>571514126Speaking of Grom, how are you supposed to play him? All the land around him is yellow territory. Are you supposed to take out your initial enemy and just sail straight for Ulthuan, even if it leaves your starting position undefended?
re-trying the campaign, in this case I think Denmark will war me for snagging this settlementor as usual the HRE trash
>>571519216Thats how I did it. Take out your initial enemy, then sail to Ulthuan asap. You can afford Grom + shitstack to defend if you want to which should be enough with Walls to keep enemies out, but generally its not worth the upkeep for just 1 settlement.
kek @ these mission vids
>>571442451this shit is absolute must because these early fights are brownmanii vs brownmaniiliterally can't tell what the fuck is going on
>>571520073I miss them so much...
>>571519216for best play, I think kill the 2 starting minor bret npcs and the minor dwarf near you while srecruiting a second stack from turn 1. The second you unlock a wagh, call it on eltharion and set sail for ulthuan. sell your yellow land to kemmler/red duke, and you can try to keep massif orcal but its frankly vestigial.I find it unsatisfying because like, going to wagh on ulthuan should be the peak of your campaign, not turn 12 shit.
>>571520528these mounted crossbow units are absolutely the star of the show of this campaign tho, peak, crossbows feel so powerful in this game, mostly cause it btfos armored nigs of which theres so many
>>571521351Well, they are essentially Darkshards (Mounted) in a game that doesnt have Warhammer power scaling. Strong indeed.
>>571232667>>BelegarHow is this a bad campaign? It's standard Dwarf (which is already A-tier) + a fun campaign objective and cool spooky heroes. Belegar is a Chad lord as well

>>571526479Gonna snipe it on sale.Looks promising, wish more than a single man was working on it, but at least that means that single man is a autist visionary who knows what the moves are with this project, even if they take forever.
